Christmas in the City : Dyker Heights, Brooklyn

29 December 2013

My dear Célinette arrived in New York a few days ago. She always has good plans, and she’s the one who told me I should go take a look at Dyker Heights Christmas Illuminations in Brooklyn (her article here). The least you could say is it’s really worth the trip!

As she had told me, the people in the neighborhood try to outdo each other by decorating their houses in the most creative or kitsch manner. And that’s how this middle-class suburb turns into a magical amusement park for kids… and for grown-ups! All the houses are covered with … READ MORE

My Christmas Sweater

26 December 2013

I hope you had a great Christmas! Have you been spoiled? What did you get? I want to know everything!

I was very lucky for my first Christmas in New York : my parents came, and tomorrow Célinette will be here for a week!

I don’t have much time for the blog but I’m back for the last two giveaways and the results of the other ones!

But first, here is a little “Christmas spirit” cool outfit with the inevitable “Christmas sweater”. It’s a real tradition here, and Americans are the best for kitsch and funny ones!

Enjoy your holidays … READ MORE

Christmas Giveaway #12 HIPANEMA

Theoretically, this should be the last but one day of our Advent Calendar! I say “theoretically” because I think I’m gonna have to extend it a little bit since I have two more giveaways to put online. Ok, let’s be quick, I still have a lot of things to prepare for my first Christmas in New York 🙂
Today you’re going to be spoiled by HIPANEMA – the famous brand of cuffs made out of beautiful Brazilian bracelets – and its twin brand AMENAPIH.

Christmas Giveaway #11 FEMME DE VOYOU

23 December 2013

Back to our Advent Calendar! Today, you can win a pretty sweat “Femme de Voyou” (Bad Boy’s wife) from Florette Paquerette.

I’m too lazy to describe my outfit, that isn’t seasonal at all (after the cold and snowy weather, a heat wave reached New York and we went from 20°F to 65°F on Saturday afternoon!)

I’m too lazy because, to be honest, I was way too ambitious with my Advent Calendar. I really wanted to spoil you because it was my way to thank you for your loyalty and your comments throughout the year. Moreover, I’m really proud to … READ MORE

Christmas Giveaway #9 JEAN PAUL GAULTIER PARFUMS

20 December 2013

I often give you the possibility to win Jean Paul Gaultier perfumes on this blog. It has become such a ritual that I couldn’t imagine this Advent Calendar without a corset or a sailor shirt.

And now is the perfect timing since there are two limited editions of Le Mâle and Classique, both adorned with the signature stripes of our dear JPG!

I happen to have attended a conference with Jean Paul Gaultier and Francis Kurkdjian – the perfumer who created Le Mâle – during the exhibition “The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier : From the sidewalk to the … READ MORE
